The Reason for the Blog

I am just trying to get a record of how I am feeling about things and whats going on. I can't seem to get a written one done... I thought I might have a better chance with this.

Light at the end of the tunnel?????

It just might be peaking through.  The house looked ready.  Just a few odds and ends, and needed to be cleaned today.    Oh please say it is done today and they get the occupancy approved.    Mom and Dad sooooo need to be in there today.   t looked like all that needed to be done today are a shower head,  a few cable/phone outlet covers, and like i said cleaning.  

Well at least on the inside.   but the outside can wait.   and its just landscape and drive stuff that is left.  THANK GOD!   Its almost been a year.  

Soon.   we shall see what the steamatic team as able to save and what they were not.   Should be interesting.

Another weekend gone.   They seem to just fly by.  I can't say I accomplished anything, barely even laundry.   Yet I am still sooooo exhausted.   Bravely going to make some life choices.   Tomorrow, I am going to start and make some food choices that should be right for me.   Hold my hand as I start this journey again.   The plan is next week to then start walking.    I did "run" in the pool today for a while.    I am going to try and keep that up with the girls all summer.   We shall see.   I am going to try for me and my girls.   I want to show them the right thing.   I don't want Morgan or the other two to have this struggle.  Hopefully I can nip what Morgan is experiencing in the bud, and the end of it will be this summer.  No more new uniforms for another year.  that would be great.   I soooo want to be the person who loves running.    I want Morgan to become that with me.    So if you are reading this,  pray for us.    I want us to be runners by the end of the year.

Holding Pattern

Well, everyone seems to be in a holding pattern.   Mom and dad are still not moved into their house... maybe they will next week.   So for now they are at the "resort" as they are calling it which is the one room, smaller than my living room hotel room at the Value Place.  I think they finished installing the carpet today.    There are a few plumbing things that need to be finished up,   they need to finish some appliances, and touch up paint, and clean..... then the inside should e done.   It better be done by the middle of the week, or my dad is going to come unglued I think, and can't blame him.  Mom and he are miserable, and just want to be HOME.   They want their bed, their chairs,  their stuff......  nothing seems to have been easy for them since the fire.

On other fronts.  The two little girls had their first week back at Amanda's.    Amy White is still in AL and thinks she needs to focus on Allie Beth.  Can't blame her there.  If I could stay home and snuggle my girls all the time I would to.  Just wasn't an option.   Megan and Ellie seemed to get along all week,  so that's a good thing.   All seemed fine on that end.

Morgan had the dance theme at camp this week, and it wrapped up with a performance today.  Grandma got to go see it and said Morgan and her partner were the best,  the only two that were dancing "together" and to the beat of the music and its tempo.  So that is good.   She had a blast.

Phil worked last weekend Fri/Sat/Sun,  and worked today,  he will work tomorrow.  Sunday is up in the air,  but too much work is making him a cranky camper.   He needs a day off.   He will definitely have next weekend off with Morgans bday and Fathers day.

Myself.   Desiree is in town, so i will get to see her and the kids a few times while they are in town.  So excited for that. I have a baby shower on Sunday as well as I have to serve during 2nd service.    Then Wednesday I signed up for dinner to take to Kathi Staton.    Then next Friday i have to clean and be ready for the party on Saturday.    Its going to be crazy until then.  then maybe i can breath for a second,  because mom is having surgery on the 27th..... so it will be back to helping her full time.   

And so it goes....................
